Is this a verizon phone? Also does it need a data package and does it have to be on a contract?

It should work for Verizon. I have T-Mobile so not positive and no you do not need a data nor contract just a sim card.

No need for contract - it will accept any SIM. Please be aware that it does not have Wi-Fi (i could not connect it). My wife use the phone for foreign SIMs when she travel to Europe and far east.

Both. With Verizon you can use it with or w/out a data contract. I use it without.

No contract required when you provide the phone. Contracts are used by the various wireless carriers to help subsidize their cost of the phone when they give it to you for free, or at a discount. This phone is set up for Verizon, so I know it will work on their system, but you will need to check to see if other systems are compatible.

This is an awesome phone...but I don't think you can get a data plan for it. It does use some data if you want to search for ringtones/ringback tones on it. But you would have to manual go into that function. It's not something that just happens. If you have any problems w/ that, Verizon is great in helping you on what pricing would be if you did wanted that.

No data plan is required by Verizon. Verizon is my carrier. I signed up to pay an extra five bucks a month over the cell phone service so I could send up to several hundred texts a month, but no data plan, unless you were going to use this phone to browse the internet or something like that, but I would not advise that.

This is not being sold as prepaid. Only a call to Verizon can tell you for sure. The term "no contract" in this case means only that we do not supply service only the phone.

The phone and a charger is all that came in the box, other than an instruction manual. We returned it, because, despite the assurances of our phone provider (Verizon) that it would work on our plan without a data plan (stand-alone), it did not.

The phone itself does not require a data plan but your carrier may specify otherwise. I have the same phone for both my kids. We are all on AT&T; network. The phones work great.

Only if you purchase the phone through here as verizon doesnt offer this phone as a contract phone anymore. Its not a new upcoming phone

No, its a GSM phone requiring a sim card, as such, it won't work on Verizon as they are a cdma account

It will function as just a phone so no you shouldn't have to have a data plan. Having used the phone now for a few months, I couldn't recommend it. Reception is very poor.

Yes it is contract phone through Verizon. But I had mine flashed over to a different provider. It is a awesome phone tho. I and my wife love them.

No. It must have a sim card, but Verizon won't charge you for a sim card. Least they didn't charge me for mine. But they won't activate it on the pay as you go, that plan is 3g and lesser.

This is not considered a Smart Phone, as it does not run a major operating system, like Apple, Android, or Windows. It does have a lot of nice features though.I use it on Verizon, and to the best of my knowledge, there is no Data Plan. Good luck on your quest.

It needs a data plan, but you don't need a contract to get it in service. Very quirky though. If you have other choices, go with another phone. Tends to go off line a lot. and locks up to the point where you have to take the battery out to reset.

Yes it is a prepaid phone. When i called verizon you could use phone but had to pay. That would not work for me because i was already paying for a line. Didnt want pay twice

Hi, Yes, you do Not need a data plan to use this phone. I had a AT&T; flip phone with no data plan. I just took the chip and plugged it into this phone and it works. It has wi-fi but the software is old.
